Crisis en aeropuertos de EE.UU. por renuncias masivas de agentes de TSA

La reciente renuncia de más de 300 agentes de la TSA ha generado caos en los aeropuertos de EE.UU., justo cuando una tormenta invernal afecta el Medio Oeste y los viajeros de vacaciones de primavera intentan volar. La renuncia se produce tras el primer fin de semana sin salario completo para los empleados debido a un cierre parcial del Gobierno que comenzó a mediados de febrero.
